Joma R5000

In terms of news and updates, Joma's 2024 running shoes catalog has been a real revolution that demonstrates the commitment of the brand from Portillo de Toledo to continue innovating to compete head to head with the big brands in the running universe. A clear example of this is the Joma R5000, which has been renewed to make a difference on the asphalt.

Main features of the Joma R5000, edition 2024

Pay attention because in these Joma R5000 running shoes there are changes, and these are very important. While it is true that the previous version is classified as a super running shoe with a more radical concept and a low profile, in these Joma R5000 there is a substantial change. A change that responds to the market trend itself, which is no longer looking for low-profile running shoes that are so aggressive and lightweight.

The first thing that stands out about these Joma R5000 is that they include the Endoplate carbon fiber plate. Its profile increases with more height, but without being such a maximalist shoe.

The shoe has a total redesign of its upper to provide better support, fit and breathability. The upper is made of yarn to achieve maximum ventilation and lightness, while also achieving an internal air flow that runs through every point of the shoe. This ensures that the foot maintains a constant temperature at all times.

In addition, VTS perforations have been added to the tongue (which in this version is very light and flat so that it does not get in the way) to reinforce this benefit. The shoe features the fit and support system constructed with TPU heat-sealed from JOMA SPORTECH technology to provide that extra support needed for fast running.

The midsole of the shoe has been completely redesigned, with a new design to have a very reactive shoes. The technology included in the midsole is the FLY REACTIVE technology, which provides better shock absorption and a great energy return.

The Joma R5000 also includes the ENDOPLATE carbon plate, which helps propel the runner, thus improving speed and running efficiency.

The outsole is made with high-density DURABILITY rubber to ensure greater resistance to abrasion on asphalt. The sole has been developed based on a biomechanical study of the technical runner's footprint to reduce it to the points that have the most contact with the surface.

It should be noted that the shoe has the lowest drop of the new Joma R line, specifically a drop of 6 mm.

Ideal runner profile for the Joma R5000

All in all, we are talking about Joma's R5000 as a good choice of mixed shoe for competition and quality training for both popular runners and elite runners. Especially closely linked to the world of race walking. Joma has already "baptized" it as the most minimalist shoe with carbon plate.

Light, even medium weight runners with a neutral stride technique will be able to get the most out of the shoe in short and medium distances, reaching speeds of less than 4 minutes per kilometer.

When will the new update of the Joma R5000 be launched?

There is no official confirmation about the release date of these renewed R5000, but this year 2024 will not end without seeing the performance that this Joma model can offer to that profile of runner who wants to get a minimalist shoe concept, but that can also be used for both demanding training and competition.
